Yesterday I saw a commercial that showed people telling some electronic gizmo to "fill pots/dog bowls, etc with a specified amount of water". We manage to have that type of technology - apparently at our fingertips. And yet, I sit here with no internet because - once again - the flying squirrels have managed to invade the boxes and chew on the lines. Not enough to completely sever - just interrupt the signal. I find myself wondering - wouldn't you think by now the communication companies would have come up with equipment boxes that were "critter proof"? I was told - "it shocks them a little.....but doesn't kill them". ????? I suppose this post just comes under the heading of "things that make you go ...hmmmmmm".
